Self Defense

Every time I feel their eyes
I'm taken back in time
Back to that place
Corroborated alibis
I don't even know my own face

Have you ever felt the fear of being alone at night?
Knowing the cost
If you choose not to fight

Keys between fingers
The thought always lingers
Is it worth it to try?
Do I even want this life?

I can feel my legs go numb
Like a bug squashed under your thumb
Hands are shaking
And my heart is still
Just dreading what's to come
Do I fight?
How many more rounds can I survive?
Do I just give in?
What happens if I win?

Have you ever felt the fear of being alone at night?
Knowing the cost
If you choose not to fight

I don't wanna fight
I just wanna survive

Have you ever felt the fear of being alone at night?
Knowing the cost
If you choose not to fight
And all I need is a moment of peace
It won't come, not for me
Have you ever felt the fear of being alone at night?

And I need a reason to fight
